BELGRANO S.S.

In Andora, on the Tyrrhenian coast of Liguria's Savona province, BELGRANO S.S. cultivates Basilico Genovese DOP, the aromatic herb that underpins an entire segment of regional cuisine. The coastal microclimate provides the conditions this plant—Ocimum basilicum L.—requires to express itself: light, ventilation, and temperatures that encourage its development without forcing it, giving the leaves the sweet, non-mentholated character that defines the denomination. The company operates within a rigorously controlled production zone, where every parameter is designed to preserve the aroma and flavor that make this basil distinct from common varieties. It is not just any vegetable, but the foundation of a gastronomic heritage that Liguria has entrusted to this herb for generations, from pesto to the most delicate preparations. In this continuity lies the essence of Belgrano's work: to maintain, leaf after leaf, a fragile and inimitable aromatic profile, safeguarded by regulations that inextricably link the basil to its stretch of coast and the microclimate that nourishes it.
